Love of Publicity.
From The Atlanta Constitution

Not long ago a famous critic told
me a story about ajournal with which
he was connected. The editor sent
little girl, who was writing for him, to
the opera on an opening night, to de-
scribe the dresses of the famous wom-
en- as only q woman could. This you
will remember, was not at a court
ball in London, or the Elysee in Paris,
but at the Metropolitan opera house
in New York. The poor little thing
was shy and unused to her trade. She
knocked SO timidly at the doors of
the boxes that no one heard her, and
in great distress she turned away, alb
solutelv crying as size went to her inn
portant coll.nge and declared that
she dared not ask the ladies about
their gowns. But he told her not to
be afraid; the grandest danes only
( dressed to be admired; they all want

Eer notes themselves, il necessary;
don't know how many doors were
opened, but the descriptions were mi

rate, and nobody found any fault.

IS eSSenClal respect and kindness CT
feeling, which no more permits a man
to gid his selfishness with Pardon
and touching Of his hat than it per-
mits him to strike q woman.
Yet although courtesy is essentially
in the heart, and is kind feeling rather.
than respectful manner, it is not
worth while to despise the manner. If
we must choose between the good
heart and suavity of address, besween
Boythorne and Lovelace, of course we
shall choose Boythorne. But why
not both? Why not the mems sana in

The young American Of to-day puffs
his cigarette in the face of his partner
on the balcony, in the boat, or in the
wagon, and smiles at the frllled 10th

lowered coat and paying state
II compliments as stiff as
her broeade to the dame whom he ad-
dresses. The youth is right in saying
that the lowered coat and the state
" compliment were the dress and the
speech Of an old sinner But he would
be right also if ne remembered that IA
miliarity breeds contempt, and that
he may wisely distrust his feeling for
any woman who does not put him up
on his good behavior. The courtesy
which Lady Mayoureen observed IN

was plain, but IS was genuine. Rsspect

The Pension Agency.

Nashville Banner
Ever since " our Bob" left Knox
vile pension agency there has been
trouble and vexation ofspirit concern
ing that delectable piece of pie. The
United States senate having failed to
confirm the appointment of Major
Wagner, the president has been con-
sidering what to do. There are nu-
merous applicants for the place, and
the impression prevails that Wagner
will not be reappointed. However
this may be, there is deal of I'M
pleasantness about the whole bust
ness. The way of the ofiice-seeker is
sometimes hard. Yea, verify, it is
frequently thorny path which leads
to disappointment and general dis
gruntlement. Happy is the man
who scramblcs not fW pie.

The Railway Commission.
New York Star.

New York Star.
1t is reasonable to to assume that
the President will, within very few
days, complete the organization of
the commission contemplated in the
Interstate Commerce bill, which be-
came a law during the last session of
the Forty-ninth Congress. The clos
ing days of thesession were toocrowd- |
ed with labors and responsibilities
that could not be postponed to admit
of his giving to this matter the de-
liberation its importance demands.
Even if there had been moment to
spare, the magnitude of the expert
ment involved forbade the idea of
hasty and inconsiderate action. The
appointment of the commissioners,
in fact, had to be deferred.
The President has now cleared away
the bulk of the debris of the last Con-
gress, however, and the country may
expect almost Immediately the an
nouncement of his conclusions touch
ingthe personnel of the Railway
| Commission.
1t is no secret that The Star con-
siders the law as unwise and unfortun-
ate. We have always regarded it as
thoughtless and inadequate response
to noisy clamor. The clamor itself
was but the froth ofsome vague popu-
lar ferment. The response was as i'm
potent and impalpable as its cause.
We do not believe it will serve any
desirable purpose or promote any
useful end. 1t will be set in motion
, intelligently and conscientiously by
, the President; it will have patient
, and indulgent hearing; it will be
condemned and obliterated.
. Such, at least, is our opinion in the
. light of fact and experience available
now. But we are glad to know that
, the President intends to launch the
experiment under the most favorable
f auspices, and to believe that, if any
q public good be possible as result,
e the country will enjoy it. The best
: of feeling prevails on all hands. The
e great railroad corporations have de-
+ clared their intention of throwing nc
= obstacles whatever in the way of the
G commission, and it may of course be
/ assumed that the government will
= not proceed in any spirit of hostility
orprecaution as regards the railroads
|. With so upright, intelligent and pa.
If triotic man as William r. Morrison
at the head of the commission, and
J. with its membership chosen by the
e same high standard, the country i:
a safe to derive every benefit possible
e under the conditions. With so whole
l. some and serious purpose inform
II ing its operations, the experiment
Ie will certainly be made at a minimum
al of hardship and inconvenience to al
l. concerned.
s. We fully realize the immensely 0
he the project and the value of the end
III it has in view We simply do no
SO believe that the machinery provided
% is at all adequate. The only occasion
s. for congratulation we are able to dis
e. Germ at present is the fact that thi
lie experiment, so thoughtlessly demand
of ed by public sentiment and so hastil,
Sc conceded by Congress, is to belaunch
IS ed under auspices SO firm, so conserva
rs tive and so just.
